Ability to mesh thin regions with bricks and wedges Automatically detects thin regions
Can transition to thicker areas meshed in tetras
Dramatically decreases the number of elements and improves solver performance
LDA analyses of thin structures are more practical
Ability to mesh prismatic regions with bricks and wedges
Automatically detects multiple layers of prismatic regions
Produces far fewer elements than the tet mesh of the same model
Improves solver performance
